Another day in paradise - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Fishy Business · 06-01-2015, 06:39 AM

I've been reading BWE for too long without doing my part and posting my harvest. So here goes my first post.
Paddled out Saturday morning at sunrise. Spent 30 minutes making bait and headed out to the northwest corner and immediately started trolling live mac. After a few passes from one end to the other and navigating through the La Jolla parking lot my reel went off

and landed this 20# at 11:50 am. The bite shut down around 12:30 to 1, but still spent the afternoon out on the water.
Thank you for reading and good luck out there.

You watched my kayak while I got my truck, thanks again. That was an awesome day out there wasn't it? To bad we couldn't stick a few each but ones better then none!

Do you live in Orange County too?

No worries, nothing worse than a thief. Yeah, I'm in OC.

Nice cherry popper.

Very impressive Lowrance Big Screen too.

Congrats on blooding up the new deck with a trophy fish.

Chuck Norris doesnt need a fishing rod, when he paddles out the fish just jump into his kayak and die out of fear of being roundhouse kicked!
